In another group, we play something called "Subject Line Roulette",
reporting the occasional funny combinations of two *adjacent* Subject
headers in the articles list. I just noticed this wonderful *triplet* in
this group:

DUH! He's a shark. Sharks have no bones, so even his "funny bone" is
cartilage.

Sheesh. Do I have to tell you everything?

A few years back I belonged to a border collie health e-mail discussion
group, and another dedicated to scuba.

At one point there was a thread going on in the border collie group
about treatment for recurrent urinary tract infections in spayed
bitches. I had a moment of horrified be-bogglement to receive a message
with the subject line: "Using bleach on BC bladders". And then I saw
that it was from the scuba group.

Heh!

That's quite a coincidence, making that Subject header readable both ways
and making some degree of sense (if cruel sense).
